Bermuda cyber attack: the new Appleby data leak

[HAB911]

Many of the world's richest and most powerful people are bracing themselves for a huge leak of their information.

The Bermuda hack – which could be somerthing like a repeat of the Panama Papers – may be about to lead to a major examination of the financial, corporate and tax affairs of the most important people on the planet.

High net worth individuals and the world's biggest companies are gearing up with legal firms and PR companies for the huge drop. But here's exactly what it means, who will be affected and how.

What's about to happen?

We don't know exactly, but something big. A number of media organisations are gearing up to release information from the cyber attack, though it's not clear what that information will be.

The root of the crimes of manafort and trump and kushner is money too. So this could be enormous.

The men are the first to be named in connection with hack on Appleby, first disclosed by The Telegraph, files from which are expected to be published by an international group of left-leaning
